I have a 6 string bass guitar and I use a Carvin 18" cabinet as a subwoofer. Good to the mid to high 20 Hz range and the price isn't that bad. I'm sure there are options that will get down to 20, but I'd bet it won't be cheap.
I don't have anything like that, but a couple of ported 15's looks like it would do it. Did he say where (and why?) he wants 120 dB - in the audience or at 1m?
At 1 meter. God help the audience if he puts those things at the front of the stage!

Tell me which key on the keyboard plays a 20hz note?If the instrument doesn't have the capability to produce that tone,what is the point?Wayner
Having a pair of Definitive's SuperCube Reference subs in my listening room, I can vouch for their ability to produce deep notes authoritatively. I can only imagine what the Trinity can do. It was actually designed to act as the bottom end of a 'proper' church organ (but the OP has surely read all of this). Their approach* works and can be confirmed by witnessing the denuded sub in action - the tuned radiators on each side move significantly more than the front firing driver when they reproduce really deep notes. What's the point? The often cited range I see for the standard bass/keyboard is silly. Players have been able to extend that range with their feet for decades. When you hear it, you definitely get the point.*Unless the device has a pair of tuned radiators (for the sympathetic behavior of the spring to act favorably, the system must be complete and mathematically correct), the principle of physics by which Definitive's design reproduces deep bass is not being employed.
You can program a synth to play any frequency you want, within its capability. The lowest note on a full pipe organ is 16 hz.
The only ones enjoying such extreme-isms would be the band. So much effort for a non-musical event.Enough said.
